Turangawaewae


Our class did inquiry in groups on the following questions:
  • What makes me special
  • What makes our whanau special
  • What makes Riverslea School Special
Each group took the following steps:
  1. A brainstorm using inspiration on IPADS
  2. Then did "Te Mahi" group poster on information for their question
  3. Then using Comic life on IPAdS collated information
  4. Groups then shared work done with senior students in the school for their reflection
  5. Then students completed an individual assessment of the Inquiry experience for them
Student reflection:
Voice of Tapsell- I liked inquiry because I like writing about stuff, I liked the topic we had especially what special about school,I think inquiry was fun because we go to write about what were done ,I like working by myself as I got more work done .
